Course Description
In this 2-day course, students are provided with a functional understanding of how to deploy, test and maintain F5 SSL Orchestrator to optimize the SSL infrastructure, provide security devices with visibility of SSL/TLS encrypted traffic, and maximize efficient use of that existing security investment.
The course includes lecture, hands-on labs, and discussion about the importance of SSL visability, how F5 SSL Orchestrator supports policy-based management, steering of traffic flows to existing security devices and centralizes the SSL decrypt/encrypt function through multi-layered security, dynamic service chaining, topology selections and security policies.
Prerequisites
The following free web-based training courses, although optional, will be very helpful for any student with limited BIG-IP administration and configuration experience.
